The tower built in the 16th century with loopholes and tin crown called "Lauerturm". Upstairs there is an agricultural museum. Right next to the tower on the city wall, there is also a very well-known, rustic restaurant, the Lauerturmstüble.

I already liked the Lauerturm as a child because I thought it was a knight's castle. However, the tower is part of the old city fortifications. There are still remains of her in some places, but nowhere as beautiful.

The Lauerturm is a landmark of the city and the last surviving tower of the northern city fortifications. The name of the tower derives from a medieval trade, tanning. The "Lauer" was the craftsman who came into contact with the tanning liquid, Loue (also Lowe or Laue).
